Usually, I don't see anyone at Phifer. This time was exactly
opposite of every time I've been here - it was jam-packed! It only
took me a couple seconds to figure out that this area was experience
hunting season. Every last rig was a hunter of some sort. How in the
world are they going to get anything with so many people ripping
around on ORVs? I checked out ol Phifer, nothing new to report, then
went on my. Way too cold for a luke-warm shower this time of year
anyway.

Phifer Warm Spring was uniquely cool in both appearance and temperature. The water
flows out of
an artesian well and is piped into a stand-up shower stall and old
bathtub. This is best enjoyed on hot summer days to due the temperature of
the spring water. There are campsites all around and at Phifer.
